Do you know any '70s funk bands?

Scott McKenzie
James Gang

oops none of them are funk but from the 70s

The J.B.‘s.. as described to my caucasian friend by the music store guy, “It’s too funky for you.”

Parliament (George Clinton, etc.), Kool & the Gang, the commodores, Rick James, James Brown, and Earth Wind & fire are pretty good

Sly and The Family Stone

The Meters
Roy Ayers Ubiquity
Sly & the Family Stone

Look for a compilation called “Move to Groove.”

thanks guys, this helps alot

definitely love, Sly and the Family Stone and Parliament…used to be a great funk cover band in San Fran called Super Booty, maybe you can find them to add to your collection…

just check out the “Boogie nights” soundtrack 1 & 2, you’ll love it i’m sure, and the movie is one of the best
